Configure Firewall Policy Rules


DCF applies a firewall 'Policy' to manage the data traffic flowing in and out of  and within your network. The policy is constructed from a series of firewall rules that are created and imposed for different types of data traffic. The rules can also be individually scheduled to be active only on specified time periods.
  • Incoming traffic - Traffic from external network zones to specified hosts in the internal network zone

  • Outgoing traffic - Traffic from hosts to the external network zone

  • Inter-zone traffic - Traffic between network zones connected to the appliance

  • VPN traffic - Traffic generated by VPN users
